Hadi Says Supports Change, But Currently Must Be Busy With Shortages, Security

Sana'a, june 16, 2011-

Vice President Abd Rabu Mansour Hadi, the acting president while Saleh is being treated in Saudi Arabia, met on Wednesday with the leaders of the youth-led uprising in Sana'a after the deadline given to him to clarify his position towards the popular revolution.

The leaders handed Hadi a letter urging him to support the uprising and accept to be a member in the transitional council yet to be formed by the youth-led protesters in the squares of change and freedom in Yemeni cities.

"Hadi is very understanding. He told us that he is for change and for the youth to continue their protests, but said he should busy these days with tackling acute shortages of key supplies such as fuel, cooking gas and maintaining security," said a spokesman for the protesters in the change square outside Sana'a University.

"Once the situation returns normal across the republic, I will be focused on change…deep change," Hadi told the leaders.

Meantime, Ramzi Al-Sanawi said that the youth-led protesters across Yemen are now deliberating the formation of a transitional council immediately as our protests will continue until the goals of the revolution were met.
